The Bengal Cat Den: new mexico bengal cats, kittens, breeders

We are located in Tijeras, New Mexico, which is 20 minutes east of Albuquerque.

Here at the Bengal Cat Den, when considering the genetics of our cats we are focused on temperament and beauty. We feel they’re of equal importance. The cats placed in our breeding program must come from proven lineage without genetic weakness. We never in-breed our Bengals and spend much time considering the right “blends” for the best outcome in progeny.

Our kittens are raised inside our home. We allow them to nurse from their mother until they are 10-11 weeks old. By 12 weeks of age, the kittens are weaned and learning to be more independent. They will have had 2 sets of vaccines by this time, eating dry food and eating wet food. Usually, this is a good age for them to go to their new homes.

We spend a lot of time socializing our kittens by holding them and playing with them. No one likes an unfriendly cat, so it is of utmost importance that the kittens learn what it is like to have human companionship at a young age.

We never have several litters of kittens at a time. We prefer to have plenty of time to get to know each kitten’s unique personality and qualities. The pattern on a Bengal kitten’s coat changes from week to week, so we spend time evaluating each kitten’s design and type. In this way, we are able to let our customers know if we have breeder or show quality kittens available.

Bengals are curious, playful, athletic, affectionate and fun-loving little leopards! Anyone that loves a good comedian would enjoy owning a Bengal. They love to climb and find their nap time in high places, much like their relative, the Asian leopard. Bengals love playing in water and retrieving balls like a dog. They are very sociable with people and unique in every way.
